Welcome to episode 81 of Erk FM: Metal Monday. Recently, Erk was pleased to be able to see Australian rock legend Dave Evans live as part of an AC/DC tribute show. Dave was the original vocalist of legendary Australian rock band AC/DC & has been rocking in various bands for over 40 years.

At the end of 2010, Erk was lucky enough to be able to interview Dave (originally recorded as Erk FM episode 127). After chatting via social media since the interview, Erk & Dave finally met after the show in April 2013. Not long after this Australian show, Dave headed overseas to Europe for another tour.

Erk presents highlights from the original interview as well as some songs from Dave’s album Sinner. Thank you to Dave for allowing me to play his music. As Erk has often said, Dave Evans doesn’t need Erk’s help to get his music out there but he allows Erk to do so anyway.

Welcome to Erk FM: Metal Monday episode 163. On this episode, Erk is preparing for a possible deployment on fire duties so is recording early just in case. There are fires in the lower Blue Mountains reasonably close to Erk’s house but not much of the Blue Mountains is black, luckily. This week’s episode features black metal from across the world courtesy of AirPlay Direct.

This week’s episode sees a return of each artist to Erk FM having been played in the past with a planned empathetic move away from rock for at least part of this episode. It is Remembrance Day here in Australia as the episode is released so what a day to remember some of the artists that Erk has brought to you before the change to the new format at the end of this month.
